Meatball Subs

So my husband loves meatball subs...me not so much. OK, really I hadn't ever tried them, but I HATE soggy bread, so I was a little weary. But I made these...and they were absolutely perfect.

Tip: Put a little olive oil on the bread and toast it before adding your meatballs...it helps to prevent soggy bread!

1 lb sausage
1 lb hamburger
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon fennel seed
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 crushed garlic clove
2 eggs
1/2 cup bread crumbs
salt and pepper

Mix together meats, seasonings, eggs and bread crumbs. Then make good sized meatballs. Bake in the oven at 400 for 15 minutes.

While the meatballs are baking, start warming up your favorite marinara sauce on the stove top. When the meatballs are done, put them in the sauce and let them simmer for about 20 more minutes.
Serve on toasted bread with a little bit of provolone cheese. Enjoy!
